So, its a subject that has been beaten to death on .net and many have said it can't be done, but it has. Now im going to do it too.
Move throttle body to factory location + blow off valve + re-routing vaccum line for s/c bypass = instant boost.
One of the guys at CCR (my sponsor) did this recently. Guy on .net said it wouldnt work or it would blow piping left and right. Turns out the trick is to use the bypass on the s/c in conjunction with a bov mounted on the s/c outlet elbow. I drove the car with it on and WOW. Even during heel-toe downshifts it makes 5psi (thats quickly blown off). The set-up is insane to say the least.... as fast as you can put your foot down the boost gauge goes up, party because there is always a bit of boost ready to go at the t.b.
Not to mention s funny sound between shifts... not like a normal 'pssssshhhhhh' but a quick "cccchhh". I'll post pics as soon as i get the car back...maybe even a vid
